When I hear the nickname, "the lonely girl", I think of a 40-year-old mousy librarian hiding out in her home, surrounded by thousands of mewling cats. It’s not the most attractive picture. For some reason though, Jennifer Aniston is OK with this label Jennifer Aniston has weathered her fair share of break-ups played out in headlines and on the cover of tabloids. Some have even labeled the actress "the lonely girl," which she says she’s fine with – but not when it comes to the roles she plays on the big screen. "Yeah, that archetype has definitely attached itself to me, and you know what? It’s fine, I can take it," Jen said in an interview with ELLE magazine’s September issue, referring to being labeled as the perpetually single woman. "I support women, men, and anybody who is in a place that’s not their strongest and who is ready to push forward." In fact, Jen said she wears her solo status badge with pride. "If I’m the emblem of ‘this is what it looks like to be the lonely girl getting on with her life,’ so be it. I can make fun of myself, and I’ll bring it up as long as the world is bringing it up," she continued. "I not going to ignore the pink elephant in the room." No Jen, please, don’t ignore that pink elephant. And as you sob yourself to sleep each night in your boyfriend-less, husband-less, baby-less giant house, I’m sure you will be filled with a deep level of contentment by the fact that everyone knows you’re miserable. I’d give you a hug, but your sadness may be contagious and I’d rather not die alone.
